Chapter 98

After waking up, Doris realized some things were missing at home, so she made a trip to the supermarket

The supermarket was in the basement, the first floor sold cosmetics, the second floor had dothing, and the third Box

featured furniture.

She found it inconvenient not having a vanity table in her room. With no place to store her skincare and makeup profes she had to use the restroom outside whenever she wanted to put on makeup

Since she was already out, she decided to check the third floor for a suitable vanity table.

As she browsed, she received a call from Lewis. “Where are you?”

“I’m at the supermarket near the apartment, buying some things.”

“Okay.” Doris asked, “Are you coming over?”

“I’m driving. I’ll swing by and help you carry your stuff–it’ll be too heavy for you alone. Lewis said matter–ofay

Doris thought about it and figured that was fine.

Lewis overheard the conversation loud and clear. “Where exactly are you?”

“I’m just browsing on the third floor. I’ll head down to the supermarket now.” Doris quickly ended the call.

She told the sales assistant, “I have something to do. I’ll come back later.”

Doris left in a hurry and headed downstairs to the supermarket. Pushing a cart, she checked her shopping list and started placing items inside one by one.

“I’m in the toiletries section,” Doris replied while picking out shampoo.

“Got it.” Lewis hung up and followed the signs toward the toiletries aisle.

Tall and blessed with movie–star–level good looks, Lewis naturally attracted attention. Many women sneaked glances at him, particularly a few young girls who were blushing with excitement.
